Visa is rolling out a new platform for a future where AI agents do the shopping for consumers. Visa is racing to stay embedded in transactions as AI platforms take over checkout. Visa on Wednesday unveiled Intelligent Commerce Connect, a platform that lets AI agents make payments across multiple card networks — not just Visa. Merchants can make their product catalogs directly discoverable to agents, allowing purchases without traditional checkout flows. The platform is currently in pilot and is expected to be generally available by June, Visa tells Axios.
